Estonian Cinderella

The Hetalia School Drama club is putting on a winter play of Cinderella. Unfortunately, they had to choose parts with names in a hat. How will the Cinderella handle playing the lead role and the rest of the cast? No pairings for now.

Disclaimer: No own Hetalia. Own story idea, but no characters. Me sad…

The club room was filled with noisy discussion as the attending members were trying to figure out who would get the parts in their upcoming production of Cinderella. "Shouldn't we wait until the other members are here before we decide this?" Katyusha loudly tried to get their attention. Feliks just shook his head, "As if! If they wanted a say this, they should've, like, showed up. Now they'll get the bit parts!" Eduard began to rub the bridge of his nose, "But we still don't know we parts will be available." It was true. There were only seven of them that day because all of the other members had other duties that day.

"I don't understand the problem, I'll be Cinderella! Problem solved!" Feliks flipped his hair and winked, but Ivan raised his hand, "I do believe you are the least qualified to be acting in any lead roles, female or other wise. Beside…" He then placed his hands on Toris' and Raivis' shoulders, "I think they will be much better as our princess and me the prince, da?" "NO!" Natalia elbowed Toris away from her brother. "Only I shall be your princess!" She began to cling to his side, "And then, we shall finish up with a real wedding ceremo…" "Nooooo! Katyusha, help me!!" Raivis began to shake, "Eduard, please don't make me Cinderella…" "I don't even know why we're doing this play!" "Like I said, I'll totally be the princess and Toris, you'll be my prince, okay?" The whole room, once again, erupted into an endless argument.

"What is going on in here?"

Everyone instantly looked toward the door to see the principal, Mr. Vargas, at the door. "You kids were making so much of a ruckus I could hear you across the hall! So, what's the problem?" When they told him about their casting problem, he suddenly took out a piece of paper and wrote over it. Then, he tore it in pieces, crumbled them, and put them in a hat. "Voila!" Toris slowly walked up to him, "Um, sir? What is that?" "Your parts!" "Our…parts?"

The principal them cleared his throat, "Well, all I did was write down seven of the main characters of Cinderella and put them in a hat for you kids to randomly pick out!" He then gave them all a huge smile with a look and if he was very proud of himself for thinking it all up, something everyone was very aware of. Toris decided to speak up again, "It's nice that you want to help us out, sir, but I think we'll eventually come with a compromise." "Are you sure?" Toris quickly looked at everyone again and could tell that randomly choosing parts could actually cause more problems, but when he looked back at Mr. Vargas the man looked absolutely crushed at the very thought that Toris was rejecting his idea. Feliciano was truly related to this man…

"I…I guess it wouldn't hurt, right guys?" The other didn't really want to protest against their principal, so they all reluctantly agreed. Mr. Vargas instantly lit up, "Wonderful! Now gather around, children! And only pick one!" One by one, they went up to the hat and chose a part. Raivis just stared at his hand, shaking with fear at what it could say. "I can't look at it! What if I'm…" Eduard smiled at him, "Don't worry, Raivis! If you don't like it, you could always switch and-" "No one is allowed to switch the part once you grab one!" Mr. Vargas quickly said. "Why not?!" The Latvian boy quickly covered his mouth but the principal didn't seem to mind. "If you could just switch parts, then there would be no point of this, right?" He placed his hand on Raivis' head, "Now, everybody open your hands!"

"Oh no!!" Katyusha cried out and Natalia looked at her sister's paper, "You got the stepmother?! But…" She opened her own hand and fearlessly ran up to their principal, "Prince's attendant? Is that even a character?!" Mr. Vargas started backing away, "We-well, there are seven of you and I was running out of main character, so…" She quickly ran to her brother, "Big brother, please tell me I'll be attending you?" Ivan just stood there, nervously laughing at the paper. Feliks began laughing after he read Ivan's paper.

"Ha ha ha ha! Fat-ass is the fairy godmother? That is, like, sooo priceless!" Both Ivan and Natalia shot death glares at him, while Toris just sighed. "Well, it looks like I'm one the stepsisters…who did you get, Feliks?" "What? Oh, just the prince." Everybody was speechless and tried to imagine the Polish boy as a dashing prince, which proved harder than imagining him as a princess. "Really! I mean, this is, like, totally not fair, you guys! I wanted to be Cinderella!" Toris slowly walked away from his ranting friend and towards his other two friends.

"So, we did you guys get?" Raivis, still shaking, held up his paper. "Oh, just the other stepsister? That's not too bad. I guess we'll be sisters then." Even though Toris tried to be upbeat, his little 'sister' still seemed to be a little distressed. "Toris, don't you get it?" Toris was a little confused, "What do you mean?" "If we're the stepsisters and Feliks is the prince and all of the other parts are filled up, who did you think Eduard got?" Toris suddenly looked up at his other friend and noticed that he was in still standing in the same spot. Feliks then stopped and realized what was going on.

"Holy crap, you guys! Eduard totally got Cinderella!"

I always wanted to write a Hetalia story, but never really had the time or motivation to write or finish one. There should really be more Estonia stories. He may not be my favorite character, but I still like him all the same and deserve more story time! Anyways, more characters will appear, but the many focus will be on soviets.

Please R&R! It's the only way I'll learn!
